CRS responded to the call to put our faith into action by holding our 2023 Annual Martin Luther King Jr. Faith in Action Assembly. Together with CRS member congregation St. Mark United Methodist Church, we hosted a Chicago Community Conversation to provide space for sharing community concerns, engaging with district council and aldermanic candidates, and learning about the 2023 municipal election.

The Chicago Community Conversation held on March 28 brought together a diverse group of community members, congregations, moderators, panelists and candidates to discuss issues that are important to our city, and our community's engagement during the event helped to create a lively and informative discussion.
